External facts are a Puppet v4 feature only. You have to use Ruby to create custom facts in Puppet v3. On Monday, March 27, 2017 at 3:54:00 PM UTC-6, Warron French wrote: > > OK, done, and done. But it still isn't showing up. > > Is this potentially because I am using PE-3.8 as a component of

don't seem to affect the Puppet run, but if the date is not accurate the Puppet agent complains. Again, just a guess, but make sure that if you are restoring the exact system state that is is not interfering with Puppet operations. Thanks, Joshua Schaeffer On Saturday, March 25, 2017 at 8:20:11 PM

Re: [Puppet Users] Custom Facts using awk

Sorry, I may have been ambiguous with the file extensions. A text file should end in .txt. This means you define external facts like this: # This is a plain text file that defines two external facts my_fact1=my_value1 my_fact2=my_value2 An executable program or script should end in whatever

[Puppet Users] Can a resource run more then once in a catalog?

Ahoy all, TL;DR I'm looking for information on how a catalog runs, in particular if you notify an exec resource within a manifest multiple times (from different resources) will the exec run multiple times if it has refreshonly set to true? I've given more details below: Background information

You can build agnostic code in Puppet and pull operating system specifics from Hiera. For example: #ls -l hieradata/ total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 872 Feb 12 18:28 common.yaml drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Feb 28 12:31 nodes drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 68 Feb 28 12:31 os #ls -lR hieradata/os

I'm new to Puppet and learning the program and language so this question might seem novice. I'm confused why I can assign an escape character to a variable but not inside any collection types (arrays or hashes). I was doing the simply motd puppet module and I created this: $red = "^[[0;31m"
